Buckling or any deformation. I've been reading up on ultrasonic motors and wish to rotate a shaft (probably a hollow cylinder as it has a better weight to strength ratio) using a bunch in parallel to increase the torque on it.
I'd like to calculate how much torque a hollow cylinder along its axis can take before it will start to buckle. The cylinder is held at one end, and the torque is applied equally in discrete intervals along the length of the cylinder.
In the example image above, the hollow cylinder is mounted...
Hi,
I'm Max and am new here.
I'm interested in building things and robotics. I'm a programmer but could have easily have been an engineer if I had made different choices.
Cheers,M
